Recent settled and warm weather, which has helped put the UK on track to having its warmest summer on record, has now subsided and has been replaced with more unsettled and changeable weather. Met Office Chief Meteorologist Steve Willington said: “A westerly regime is now in charge of the UK’s
to build a more resilient food system? Box 1: CASE STUDY - Severe drought in Liaoning, July and August 2014 In July and August 2014, seven provinces in North China experienced a severe drought. For some areas, it was the most serious drought since 1951 (Wang and He, 2015). Northeast China had considerably
developed over the Bay of Biscay to the south. Particularly warm tropical air and very cold polar air collided, forcing warm air to rise creating an area of low pressure. A big difference in temperature between the warm and cold air helped to cause a rapid ascent and a particularly low pressure system
of Science Simon Vosper leads the scientific work on weather modelling, which is the basis of forecasting. He said: “Summer is famously tricky for weather forecasting in the UK. A lack of global drivers compared to winter, coupled with the potential for small-scale impactful weather, means that it can
